Fundición 2.1
A Spoken Word of Javier Lasheras & Las CasiCasiotone
The meeting between electronic music and the poetic word creates a new emotional geography. Through border territories and currently required, Javier Lasheras and Las CasiCasiotone converge to invite the spectators to navigate roads without prejudice or preconceptions. The cards aren´t marked. As JL and LCC declare «we believe in the sensitivity and emotional intelligence of the audience. And we assume that the experience and credibility of our project will be realized only when the spectators are comfortable with this risk that we share with them».
Indeed, every word and sound born from the risk: not from the provocation, but a suggestion, not from the magic, but by the reason; humans without sacred objects. Contradictory, yes, but for that very recognizable. Finally, a mixture of all these materials that are made our dreams and our fears. Materials of body and soul, music and literature of privacy and reflection, joy and celebration. Swing, night, music, passion, inside, eyelids, wounds, wheel, needle, men, women, chance, abyss, ash, salt, laughs and gasps...
